Going back to Utah, where the siblings grew up, to perform with their
band The Atomics and to shoot with H&M Magazine, didn’t come
without mixed emotions, said guitarist Daisy:

“I wish I had appreciated it more when I was here, because I’m never
going to live like that again. Instead of waiting impatiently for the
future, I should have appreciated living here.”

It was always there, the few days H&M Magazine spent with the
Smiths in and around their old hometown of Spanish Fork, Utah: A
lingering question of belonging. The happy familiarity of coming home,
and then the uneasy sense of having grown out of their childhood small town.

”It’s weird to be back here. For some reason this trip feels weird.
My friends are different”, ”People change over a few years. Not in a
bad way, but sometimes you grow apart,” said Lucky Blue, who then
emphasised that he is still ”homies with all his solid friends.”

For this fashion story, Gro Curtis styled him in wool trousers,
turtlenecks and classic shirts – juxtaposed with bold prints from the
Kenzo x H&M collection (how dreamy is Lucky in that down jacket?).
After all, life for the Smith siblings has been all about contrasts
these last few years.

“Coming from LA and New York, doing shoots with famous
photographers, then returning to a school with farms around it. That
was kind of weird,” said Lucky of his first few years of modelling,
before the family left Utah for Los Angeles.
